Budapest, Central Hungary, Hungary
Two MICHELIN Keys, 2026
Matild Palace stands on Váci utca on the Pest side of Budapest, a Belle Époque palace from 1902 a short walk from the Danube and the Elisabeth Bridge.
Our team recommends
The palace stands on the Pest side of the river, less than 300 metres from the Elisabeth Bridge, with Deák Ferenc tér a short walk or tram ride away. That puts both sides of the city within easy reach.
From a modest façade you step into a white, vaulted hallway where old mouldings meet contemporary design. We were welcomed with a drink at check-in, and someone from the front desk walked us up to show us the room and its features.
Our Loft Suite was on the fifth floor, added as a tribute to the artists who once lived at the top of the palace. It is one large open space with windows on two sides, one looking over the Danube and the Elisabeth Bridge, with books and art all around. The marble bathroom had Acqua di Parma products.
Turndown came every night with slippers set out and a small gift by the bed. We dined at Spago by Wolfgang Puck, and The Duchess, the bar on the roof, is a liquor library with views across the river to Buda.
From our guests
Our team recommends
Our team found it a hotel worth exploring in itself, for anyone who loves architecture and history, and a good base for both Buda and Pest.
From our guests
Our guests stay in a Deluxe Room with a king bed.
Our team recommends
For something different, choose a Loft Suite: open plan, artistic and full of light. The Elisabeth Bridge Suites sit at the corners of the building that face the Danube.
If you don’t need a suite, request a room on the river side, with the Danube and the Buda side outside. The suite we’d single out is the Crown Tower Suite, on two floors in the palace’s tower, with two balconies, a telescope and views all around the city. For family or friends, the One Bedroom Suite adds a living room apart from the bedroom.
